Citizen CPR Symposium

The Citizen CPR Foundation and the Kentucky Office of Rural Health partnered on a two-day virtual conference open to all Kentucky residents interested in improving SCA outcomes. The schedule featured a dynamic faculty line-up focused on empowering attendees with a strategic and practical approach for improving SCA survival in their communities, no matter how big or small. This approach included both the latest scientific recommendations, well-defined tactics and guidance in the form of proven best practices and innovations in implementation.
